Clutch Pedal Position Sensor, External
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Volvo V70, 2009 Volvo V70, and 2008 Volvo V70. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Clutch pedal position sensor, external, is located together with the clutch pedal.
The sensor is only found on vehicles with manual transmission. The sensor is directly connected to Central electronic module (CEM) for voltage feed, ground, and signal. The sensor gives an analogue signal out to Central electronic module (CEM) which is proportional to how far the pedal is pressed down. The information is used in different ways depending on how the vehicle is equipped.
The signal is used as one of the conditions for the immobilizer and by the adaptive cruise control function.
